What a rarity, a Monday-morning game. But it's probably a good thing if it can clear the stench of yesterday's game from the air. Can the Dodgers redeem themselves, or will they head to San Diego having lost four of seven to the league's two worst teams? Never cease trusting!

I'm looking for something i read very early this morning and i can't find it, it's there's a 5 game lead on 6 games as today, though it's true the Rockies end the season at Dodger, the series between both teams was clearly won over the Rockies 12-3.

Disclaimer: i read it about 5:30 am and i might not have retained it well.

@RB You're probably right re Broxton, but in the heat of the moment, and in the throes of Dodger passion, whilst losing to the Pie Rats on 4 runs in the 9th inning against your best closer, it does mean he's the metaphorical Brad Lidge, as least for that moment in time.

If we win, I have ordered no celebration in the office. No shaking the coffee pot and spraying it on me, no plastic sheeting to keep the file cabinets dry, no visit from corporate, etc.

I wish this team could show just a little bit of fight. Even the comebacks on this trip have been gifts from the other team, via walks or errors or whatever. How can this team be playing like this with the chance to clinch the frickin' division?
